Reminds me more of Black Temple than Ulduar.
Black Temple was/is fun, so, that's not a bad thing

If it was bright and warm you wouldnt come back also because some people just want everything and want nothing at the same time and are never happy.
I really enjoyed the raid dungeon video. Place looks massive with enough varied envirnments to help combat raid fatigue. Looking forward to stepping into it.
Raid looks pretty badass, especially since it's not even done yet, love that it doesn't have the same look throughout. Here's to hoping the bosses will be equally awesome.
Finally an awesome raid design, I'm really excited about it, sad is that ToT will never be as epic as Ulduar, BT or Karazhan, thanks to the LFR...
nice raid environment
"To ensure that as many people as possible can use their time in-game on something they think is fun and that they enjoy doing, and not make people feel like they have to spend massive amounts of time every day just to reach a theoretical maximum weekly limit of Valor Points."
Got a good laugh at this one. Did you do your dailies today?
Throne of Thunder looks freaking amazing.
No they got revered and stopped.
Sure dailies aren't mandatory, upgrading your gear isn't mandatory, neither is VP capping but I know you do it weekly and so do I. I also know that you have to do dailies to purchase gear with your VP. So in a sense yes they are mandatory.
Every decent raiding guild had every guild member doing every daily for the first two months of the expansion to get VP gear. The same can be said for gearing alts. You have to do your dailies if you want to purchase gear with your VP.
Sounds "mandatory" to me.
Cinder kitten!
For the most part, those who didnt like doing dailies anyways and yet did they anyways to unlock the rewards did just that and stopped. There will always be players out there who continue to do dailies beyond just the unlocking of the rewards just as there are those who run dungeons and raids after already acquiring the rewards.
Though Blizzard thinks fun is getting players to do thing they dont enjoy. Sure they try to make it more enjoyable, though doesnt seem to have a lasting effect. I guess thankfully for Blizzard, dailies are among the fastest forms of content to produce and not much continued support required in the forms of tuning due to it being designed to be soloable by all in quest gear.
Well the person in charge of raid design doesnt see dailies as optional as the other developers make them out to be and this is the guy that is in charge of content where gear plays a far larger roll than dailies which are tuned for quest gear. GC might have the over head view but he is also concerned about keeping soloists and no lifers busy.

If your guild is forcing you to do dailies then you can switch guilds if you hate dailies that much. There's always a choice to be made when deciding on how you want to progress in the game, including the people you play with.
Mandatory would be: cap your valor/charms every week or your subscription gets cancelled.
On the topic of the instance preview...holy crap the place is huge. I'm liking what I see.
Q: Where the fuck is Xia Xia, SIU?!?!
A1: She needs to start making eggs for Easter...
A2: Drunk and sleeping somewhere.
I should visit this site more often whenever im competing in a giveaway contest ... lol
I'm actually not. What I said there was REALLY just a random conglomerate of words that somehow found it's way to cohesion. On a serious note, why would they say they wanted this raid to be more like Uld and then relate nothing of the two? The only thing remotely similar is the size. BT was huge but they didn't say Uld was going to reminiscent of it. It's not like I'm hating on it, because I said it looks epic and I can't wait to raid it. But I really was hoping for an Old God or a Titan or Keeper or SOMETHING.. not just comparison due to size.
